Hi

Feel for you, I had CFS for 7 years.

How long have you had it? What are your symptoms?

Do you think it initially started from an illness?

Multiple triggers:

Stressful time with divorce

Allergic reaction to antibiotics

Mild concussion from coming off my bike

Exposure to organophosphate

Bad virus, off work for a week- first time ever

.... never been the same since.

How about you?

HI,

I think not everyone's situation is identical, however very common elements are stress, trauma, and post illness. Continual stress could be also be a cause of Adrenalin Fatigue which can be crippling to one's energy levels and can lead to a depressive state. Also you would need to carry our other tests to ensure that there are no other ailments to deal with (your GP should advise you on this).

It's a very slow process to get back to 'normal". I can recommend Ubiquinol coq10, taken at breakfast with food to help regenerate energy levels, and perhaps Ginko Biloba at lunchtime. They take a few weeks to kick in but many have found this helpful.

Also you require adequate rest, and you would need to start an exercise regime, starting with just a very few mild exercises (even in your own home) and then building up really slowly as your body hopefully starts to recover.

It's a very very long process so patience is key.

Not what you're looking for?
